1. Without checkin yet....Id say Black,Release,Breath,SOLAT and of course...Betterman has to be 1 or 2...IMO of course.Today,before I go to MSG to see my beloved Rangers play Ottawa,I will list the best tunes/versions from the short 2010 N.American tour.
  2. quite surprising toplist though .. no Black no Better Man in there .. among others
  3. Indifference!
  4. Driftin ?...Soon Forget ??..are they serious ?.....no Betterman or Black ?.....Ridiculous.........I got Release at least.....lol
  5. Since "Better Man" got a lot of radio play, maybe the list compilers didn't realize that it wasn't officially released as a single. Same might be said for "Black" and/or "Corduroy."

    I hope that was the case.
  6. Oh, they included "Corduroy." My bad.

    RVM wasn't a single....where's "Small Town?"...How about "In My Tree" or "Insignificance?"

    Meh, no PJ list should have less than 30 entries.
  7. OK...I loved the short 2010 tour in N.America...I caught 3 gigs (NJ and both MSG shows),that were great.I didnt want the 2 MSG gigs to dominate the set,so I purposely left quite a few songs off from those 2 incredible gigs.I listed a set from those 2 gigs a while back.Heres my WICKED set/playlist I have had on my iPod since the boots came out in 2010.......


    1) Oceans-05.06 Columbus.....it was either this,or Release from Boston.I went with the more rare Oceans.

    42) Hunger Strike-05.21 NYC....a classic.....nice version....best version is of course 10.06.09 with Cornell...still a tune to include here..
    43) Alive-05.20 NYC....this song IS PJ IMO...couldnt leave it out....
    44) Yellow Ledbetter-05.21..I was goin to end this mix with Indifference,from 05.20 NYC.But,I ended my NYC 2010 mix that way,so I went with Ledbetter.



    Total time : 3 hrs,5 min.......An odd mix indeed.I went with a soft,acoustic encore first,then blew it up for encore 2.This forum,is full of diehards...so why not make a crazy live mix of Lost Dogs..and of course a few classics, from the N.American 2010 tour ....Just Breathe and T.End fit in well with the acoustic encore,but I left them out in favor of Speed Of Sound and Fatal for this mix......how about the last 5 tunes..now thats a way to end a gig huh......
  8. Originally posted by RUMMYNo, Mexico is part of North America. Whatever.

    Where have you started with your PJ listening? Their greatest hits album? Their first "big three" albums? Live releases?

    We want to know so we can have you join in on our madness.


    I have the first two. I've had them a while just never really took much time with them.
  9. Thought this was funny, Eddie does a Rain snippet



  10. If you have the time/money, I (we) recommend that you get Vitalogy to complete the "holy trinity."

    Nice list - very diverse/not-the-usual PJ set.

    I'm still working through the 12 shows (not bothering with New Orleans) and plan to make another four-disc extravaganza.

    I believe you partially answered this request before (using Detroit/Wisc/Chicago and Boise/Seattlex2, etc. mixes) but can you recommend to me THE BEST versions from the 2000 North American shows (no need to separate into the two legs) of the songs they played.

    If/when you get a chance, of course.

    I was considering making a European mix (which you've already made)but I just can't get over the absence of In My Tree and Breath - which were played in North America.


  12. Not a problem Matt...Ill do that today.I was at MSG again last night,Rangers got shut out.I see they are goin to Toronto and Montreal this weekend.I might go to the Montreal game on Sunday...have to see if my guy comes through for me.Do you go to Leaf games ? Original 6 this weekend in Canada...
